Hello everyone! We're excited to show you a sneak-peek of what's in store for you in our next issue of Simply Cards & Papercraft (238)

We've been super thrilled to team up with Lisa Horton to bring you our biggest-ever embossing folder with complementary sentiment dies. We're hoping you'll be able to embrace the trend of DL cards with ease - and it's the perfect set for you to switch from Christmas makes to springtime creations.

We asked our Design Team to help inspire you all and so on page 9 you'll find Katie's creations combining the sentiment dies, embossing folder and BONUS digital downloads, whilst over on page 30 Lisa Horton has joined the team to put all of the emphasis on the embossing folder and sentiment dies. We have the wonderful Sandra Rayner to showcase several off-the-page projects - you'll be able to find her gorgeous results on page 60.

Here's a few creations from each designer:

This month's masterclass is a stash-busting technique where we showcase how you can use the smaller dies in your stash to help create eye-catching backgrounds - make sure you turn to page 42 to find Jessica's step-by-step guides and stylish inspiration.

For something a little different this month, we wanted to show our support to Ingrid Vichova who’s been on our Design Team for years. She’s stepped into new territory with Creative Craft Products and helped design a stunning range of goodies called Floral Nostalgia – we then asked her to showcase how to get more from the co-ordinating items in the collection in our Tried & Tested on page 20.

We got in a sweet and savoury mood with Kim Kesti’s wonderful designs, where she cooked up a luxurious banquet of cards using the latest release from Spellbinders. Aren’t they brilliant!

Coming out on the 15th December, make sure you mark the date in your diary, as this is truly an unmissable magazine with that incredible Lisa Horton Embossing Folder!
